Roosevelt Accepts Plan to Cut Vets Benefits in Economy Bill
President Roosevelt signaled willingness to accept a 25 percent cap on reductions for service-connected veterans as part of the economy bill. Senator Byrnes said new rules effective July 1 would trim disability payments by roughly 18 to 20 percent, but the overall benefits would align with the amendment. The plan also guarantees a minimum pension of 154 a month for Spanish American War veterans over 62.
